At NMISA in Spain, a strategic initiative named IGUALES was launched in collaboration with the Eurofirms Foundation to support employees and their families in identifying and managing disabilities - particularly those that are invisible or non-apparent. This confidential six-month programme provided personalised consultations to 25 employees and 33 family members, helping them better understand potential disabilities, navigate social and legal support systems, and access appropriate resources. Reflecting Nissan’s commitment to inclusivity, the initiative aims to normalise and make disabilities visible, empower individuals, and raise awareness around equity and support.
